Wysocki, Len Brown, Ashwin Chaugule Cc: linux-acpi, linux-kernel, Duc Dang, lho, Hoan Tran When CPPC fails to request PCC channel, the CPC data is freed and cpc_desc_ptr points to the invalid data. This change prevents this issue by moving cpc_desc_ptr assignment after PCC channel request.

Wysocki, Len Brown, linux acpi, lkml, Duc Dang, Loc Ho Hi Ashwin, Yes, I saw kernel crash. As cpc_desc_ptr is not NULL, cppc_cpufreq_init() still can pass then crash during cppc_get_perf_caps() access CPPC shared memory. It's not only "PCC channel request fail" can create this issue but "acpi_get_psd() fail" also creates it Thanks Hoan On Fri, May 27, 2016 at 9:10 AM, Ashwin Chaugule <ashwin.chaugule@linaro.org> wrote: > On 25 May 2016 at 15:09, Hoan Tran <hotran@apm.com> wrote: >> When CPPC fails to request PCC channel, the CPC data is freed >> and cpc_desc_ptr points to the invalid data.
